“What a Satsang weekend with Giten. I have never been this sober before.
It cannot be described in words. Beyond myself, disappearing into the void
suddenly breaks a secret separation. A love wells up.
Without anything happening, everything changes. Satsang is a
sudden “jam” from soul, to soul, a “jam” with everything.”
– Deva Emanuel, musician, composer and participant in satsang weekend
“God is Everywhere” with Giten, 9-11 September, 2022.
“Giten is really a spiritual master of love and silence. He is a loving man,
who knows the science of truth, love and life. Whenever I read his words
of spirituality, I always find myself in deep silence and in the belly of the
divine, where anyone can feel himself as a buddha.”
– Swami Prem Pathik, Nepal
“Satsang with Giten is like the wind: invisible, everywhere and you are one with
it from the inside and the outside like the divine. “I disappeared in silence and love during
the satsang with Giten. Satsang with Giten is fantastic. It is the most important thing in
my life. There is really nothing else in my life that is more important than satsang.”
– Deva Emanuel, participant in the satsang weekend “Surrendering into Love”, 10-12 June, 2022.
“I love satsang with Giten. Satsang with Giten is like coming home. I went into samadhi three
times during a satsang weekend with Giten – and I also got a map and an understanding for how
to go into samadhi again. I was so scared that I would lose the stillness that I found in satsang in
India, but I found the stillness again in satsang with Giten. Previously, I did not think that enlightenment was possible, but now I think it is possible.”
– Padma
“When I participated in Satsang with Giten for the first time, I felt that I had come to the
right place. I felt that I had come home. I never thought that a 2-hour Satsang could go so
deep. The love that I found within myself during Satsang with Giten just continued
to flow a week after the Satsang.”
– Iiris, special education teacher for autistic children and participant in
Satsang with Moji and Eckhart Tolle
Whatsoever you are, celebrate yourself, celebrate your own being. Real growth is effortless, one simply enjoys oneself, one celebrates one’s own being.
When you seek an ideal or goal in the future, you forget to simply enjoy yourself, and begin to struggle for an ideal or goal in the future. You miss the present moment, which is the only reality. The present moment is the only source to celebrate your own being. Meditation is the way to come back to the here and now and to enjoy yourself. And meditation is not just a method or technique,
meditation is love. Meditation is joyfulness.
Life is beautiful. God is hidden everywhere in a million of ways. The joy and celebration of life is already happening everywhere. The invitation to God, to the divine has already been given to you. It is only a question of participating in life, to be one with life. From this moment participate in life, be one with life.
This satsang weekend with Giten is supported by silent satsang with Giten, which is a direct insight and experience of being. This experience transforms our entire life and consciousness.

SWAMI DHYAN GITEN
Spiritual teacher and author Swami Dhyan Giten’s quotes, articles and books have touched the hearts of thousands of people and are appearing with increased frequency in magazines, blogs and homepages. The influence from his teaching and books continues to grow and are reaching intelligent people and seekers of truth in virtually all countries in the world.
He has been described by Swami Prem Pathik in Nepal: “Giten is really a spiritual master of love and silence. He is a loving man, who knows the science of truth, love and life. Whenever I read his words of spirituality, I always find myself in deep silence and in the belly of the divine, where anyone can feel himself as a buddha.”
Padma, beloved friend of Giten and participant in satsang with Giten says: Satsang with Giten is heaven.“Satsang with Giten is like coming home. I went into samadhi three times during a satsang weekend with Giten – and I also got a map and an understanding for how to go into samadhi again. I was so scared that I could lose the stillness that I found in satsang in India, but I found the stillness again in satsang with Giten. Previously, I did not think that enlightenment was possible,but now I think it is possible.”
In 1982, Giten was directed by the Divine presence in a trance session with the American trance chancellor Lin David Martin: “You have listened to your intuition, to your true inner voice, more than most. You have been searching for the contact with the Spirit for a long time and now it is beginning to manifest on the outer plane. You have been gifted many times in previous embodiments and now everything will come rather easy for you. I want you to put your energy into the lives of others, because you can.”
He is author of the best-selling book in Swedish Meditationens Sång – Om meditation, relationer och andlig kreativitet, When the Drop becomes the Ocean: A Journey to the Ocean, to the Divine, The Silent Whisperings of the Heart – An Introduction to Giten’s Approach to Life, Presence – Working from Within: The Psychology of Being, The Language of Silence -From Darkness to Light, The Way, the Truth and the Life: On Jesus Christ, The Man, the Mystic and the Rebel, You are already a Buddha: A New Way of Being, A New Way of Living, Silence is the Way: The Teachings of Buddha – Golden Nuggets of Love, Truth and Wisdom., You are already a buddha: A New Way of Being, A New Way of Living and The Call of the Heart.
Surrender your ego so you can surrender to love and disappear into silence.
Love is the door to enlightenment and to be enough to yourself, to be a light to yourself.
“Satsang with Giten is unique. It vibrates in my heart as silently, fragile and poetic as listening to the
bells of the anemones. Satsang is hope, a path to truth, to love and to peace. By just listening, “I”
disappears with fear, music is left.”
– Deva Emanuel, participant in satsang weeked “The Way of the Heart”, 13-15 May, 2022, in Stockholm

Padma, beloved friend of Giten and participant in satsang with Giten says: Satsang with Giten is heaven. Satsang with Giten has the same taste as satsang in India. Suddenly meditation is not dry and sterile, but an experience of love, silence and prayer, of being one with life.
I was so afraid that I would lose the silence that I had found during satsang in India, but I found the silence again in satsang with Giten. Samadhi is like dying. The fear that I experienced in the beginning in satsang when I went into samadhi, when I disappeared into the silence, has now disappeared totally.

Deva Emanuel, musician, composer, teacher in music and participant in satsang with Giten for 7 years, says that satsang with Giten is a gem. He says: “Einstein´s response to a political climate increasingly hostile to scientists and teachers was that if he lived life again, it would be as a plumber.
Intelligent people seem to have something in common, a sort of strong clairity in their words, where love can’t be ignored. It almost seems easy to them, how they share their insights with the world.

Carl Marx also addressed another side of the issue in terms of opium for the masses. Society does not care about developing intelligence, communication or love in man.

“Man is like a river on his way towards the ocean, towards the divine. The drop has a thirst, a longing. The drop knows nothing of the ocean, but the drop longs to become one with the ocean. The drop cannot find fulfillment until it becomes on with the ocean, the divine. This book is a journey to the ocean, to the divine.”
– Swami Dhyan Giten
Giten has presented the Swedish climate activist Greta with his book “When the Drop becomes the Ocean.” In the letter to Greta Gitensays about the book: This book is about the Upanishads, which is the first spiritual system in the world almost ten thousand years ago in India.
The Upanishads are so genius that they are almost unknown in the world and that is the basic reason why the world is in such misery.The book also describes the basic psychological and spiritual causes to the current climate change.
On the back side of the book it says: In this book Giten talks about The Upanishadic vision of life, which is a universe in an organic whole.We are all existing in togetherness. The trees, the flowers, the stones, the birds, the mountains and the stars are all interlinked.The part represents the whole. Nothing is lower, nothing is higher – all is one. The smallest blade of grass is connected with the farthest stars.
The Upanishadic vision of life has never become part of human consciousness. It has remained the vision of a few mystics, which is the basicreason for the misery of the world.”
Giten ends the letter to Greta saying that he sends a copy of the book as a support in her impressive work against climate change.
Giten’s new beautiful coffee table book “When the Drop becomes the ocean” is in A4-size with color photos and is a beautiful gift to yourself or a friend.
The book can be displayed both on your coffee table and in your spiritual center, so that people can open a page in the book and receive a light on the path, to receive a guiding quote for the day.
The book will be sold globally on the Lulu Bookstore and via global distribution channels such as Amazon, Ingram and Barnes & Noble.
The book is also available in Sweden on Akademibokhandeln.se, Bokus.com and Adlibris.se
The book is dedicated to Padma, Giten’s beloved friend from many lives, who also participated in satsang with him.
This book is a compilation of lectures from satsang with spiritual teacher and best-selling author Swami Dhyan Giten on the Upanishads, the ancient wisdom of India, between March 2016 and July 2018 in Stockholm.
In this book Giten talks about The Upanishadic vision of life, which is a universe in an organic whole. We are all existing in togetherness. The trees, the flowers, the stones, the birds, the mountains and the stars are all interlinked. The part represents the whole. Nothing is lower, nothing is higher – all is one. The smallest blade of grass is connected with the farthest stars.The Upanishadic vision of life has never become part of human consciousness. It has remained the vision of a few mystics, which is the basic reason for the misery of the world.
The word Upanishadic means to sit in deep communion with truth. It means to sit in satsang in a deep communion of the heart. The Upanishads is a silent communion from heart to heart. That is the meaning of Upanishad. Sitting in silent communion of the heart, and something transpires. This transmission beyond words is the meaning of the word Upanishad. The Upanishadic approach is individual. Organized religion, tradition, dogma and ideology are bound to be against individuality.
“Satsang with Giten is heaven. Satsang with Giten about the Upanishads is so exciting. Satsang with Giten is like a scent, a flowering of This is it!

THANK YOU FROM THE HEART!
* * * * * , Five hearts
“Best reading Giten’s new book”You are Already a Buddha”!
THANK YOU FROM THE HEART!”
– Rani Spets Edgren, Breath Therapist, Stockholm
Everybody has the birthright to become a buddha. The buddha is inherent in every human being, and not only in every human being, but it is the intrinsic quality of every living being. What is preventing you from becoming a Buddha? The reason is simple, because to become a buddha is also a desire. It is not a question of becoming a buddha. It is a question of entering your being. The buddha is already in your being.
There is a great difference between being and becoming. Becoming is in the future. Being is just here and now. You are already a buddha. It means that we are a buddha, but we are unnecessarily running after being a buddha.
When you go inside, where a silenc descends on you, you return to the source. At the source, you are the buddha. At the source, you are one with life and existence. The buddha is your own
being.
Make a deep commitment to yourself that you are going to become a buddha in this life. Without being a buddha, you don’t have any meaning in your life. When you don’t make a commitment to become a buddha in this life it may take lives and lives, because you do not want to become enlightened. Otherwise, this very moment you are the buddha, because you are already a buddha.
Just a straight insight into your inner being, and enlightenment can happen suddenly. Within you wait a light that has been within you since eternity, a light that is your immortality. Just enter into yourself and you have entered the temple of existence.
This book is a compilation of spiritual teacher and author Swami Dhyan Giten’s lectures on enlightenment during satsang between 2020 – 2021 in Stockholm.
This book is an opportunity to find the inner buddha, to find the silence, joy, truth, freedom, compassion, to find the roots in eternity, immortality and deathlessness, and to be one with life and existence. It is to become one with the trees, with the animals, with the rivers and the oceans. Use this book as an opportunity to become a light to yourself.

GITEN COMPARED TO THE LOVED SWEDISHPOET DAN ANDERSSON:
EXCERPT FROM THE SWEDISH PROFESSOR IN THEORETICAL PHYSICS, BRAGE NORIN’S
NEWSLETTER
An excerpt from Giten’s book “The Language of Silence: From Darkness to Light
Brage Norin is professor of theoretical physics, an internationally recognized climate researcher and consultant at the Swedish think tank Skogså: This is how a philosopher – Giten – formulates himself who for some strange reason understands the evil in today’s world. This is very unique. He is also completely fearless and spreads his very controversial
views to millions of readers around the world. I quote him: “It means to find the whole Existence within myself, it means to discover that Existence is alive in my own heart and being. The song of a bird echoes my own inner voice, the beauty of a flower reflects my own inner beauty, a dog becomes an expression of my own unconditional love and friendship, the majestic mountains create an ecstatic joy, and I discover all the shining stars of the sky within my own heart. It is to realize that the whole Existence is alive, and that the the underlying thread of consciousness is God. ” (End quote).
Translation is not required. Our Swedish poet Dan Andersson has in Swedish formulated almost identical thoughts – a hundred years ago: “It is something beyond the mountains, beyond the flowers and the song, there is something behind the stars, behind my hot heart. Hear – something goes and whispers, goes and attracts me and prays: Come to us, for this earth is not your kingdom!”

Satsang with Giten starts a lecture, which is followed by 40 minutes of satsang with Giten in silence and meditation. During the satsangs there arose a deep
silence and unity in the group. Giten has talked about a variety of topics of concern for the modern man during satsang for example love, joy, relationships, acceptance, understanding, intuition, healing, trust, creativity, friendship, spiritual growth, evolution, society, life, meditation, silence, spirituality, mysticism, psychology, truth, wisdom, death, unity with life, God and enlightenment. He has also talked about a number of spiritual teachers and traditions such as Vedanta, Yoga, Zen, Tantra, Veda, The Upanishads, Ayurveda, the chakra system, Tao, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Patanjali and Jesus Christ.
“Satsang with Giten is a taste of the eternal, a taste of the timeless. It can feel like we sat for 3 hours, while we only sat for 40 minutes. I was so afraid that I would lose the silence that I had found during satsang in India, but I found the silence again in satsang with Giten.
Samadhi is like dying. The fear that I experienced in the beginning in satsang when I went into samadhi, when I disappeared into the silence, has now disappeared totally. Satsang with Giten is like coming home. I went into samadhi three times during a satsang weekend with Giten – and I also got a map and an understanding for how to go into samadhi again. Before I started to attend satsang, I did not think that enlightenment was possible, but now I feel that it is possible, Padma says in the foreword to the book.

PRESENCE-WORKING FROM WITHIN:
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF BEING
“Presence – Working from Within” is more than a book about presence,
but a manual in the art of unlocking the Soul’s Presence within the Personality.”
– Eric Rolf, International lecturer, seminary leader, author and former consultant to John Lennon
This book is an invitation to open our hearts. This book is basically about love. It is designed to help us
understand how healing happens. Healing is pure love. Healing and wholeness happens when we meet the love within ourselves. Spiritual therapy is about love – what love is, where to find it and how to develop the capacity to share love, to give caring. This book is an invitation to people, who are interested in spiritual therapy and healing and want to work with people from love, truth and wholeness.
Spiritual therapy works basically because we are all one. In the depth of our heart and being, we are in contact with each other. We are in contact with each other in the ocean of consciousness.
Working with people from love, truth and wholeness is the psychology of being, the science of inner transformation. The psychology of being begins where Western psychology ends. It goes beyond Skinner, Freud, Jung, Rogers and Humanistic psychology. The psychology of being is the psychology of consciousness, a psychology for inner transformation. It is basically not a question of psychology; it is a question of being. The psychology of being begins where we are and takes us to that which we can be.
The psychology of being takes us through the layers of personality of thoughts, feelings and learnt attitudes to our inner being, which is hidden deep within us. The inner being is a deep acceptance of ourselves as we are. The inner being is to be available to life. The inner being is to be one with life. This book is an invitation to discover the inner being, our inner source of love, joy, acceptance, humour, truth, freedom, wisdom, silence, creativity and oneness with life.
This book is designed to help us develop our presence, so that our presence and intuition becomes a source of love, joy, acceptance, understanding, truth, silence, wisdom and creativity in the contact with another person. This book presents a new dimension of healing with a base in meditation. Meditation is the way to deepen our capacity to be present and to explore how to bring the meditative presence and quality into the healing and therapeutic process. The underlying theme of the book is meditation – but not meditation as a static technique – but as the capacity to BE with ourselves and with another person in a quality of watchful awareness, acceptance and relaxation.
This book aims at developing a meditative presence and quality, to develop the inner “yes”-quality, the silence and emptiness within, the inner source n of healing and wholeness, the capacity to surrender to life. This book is written both for people who want to discover their own inner being and for those who work with other people and wants to discover a new love, clarity, depth and inspiration in their professional work.
The different topics of the book are combined with practical exercises.
“A WINK FROM THE UNIVERSE”
ERIC ROLF, AMERICAN THERAPIST, AUTHOR AND FORMER CONSULTANT TO JOHN LENNON GIVES GITEN’S BOOK “PRESENCE – WORKING FROM WITHIN” TO HIS SON
Eric Rolf writes to Giten: “Last night my son, age 50, came by to talk, something he doesn’t do very often. We usually talk on the phone, even though we only live about 30 minutes away.
In any case he is going through some deep inner changes, and was asking my advice about how best to deal with it and with his over active mind. We spent about 3 hours talking, and it was all about making the inner connection, meditation, the soul, intuition and feeling our inner presence as our greater reality and taking risks with it.Basically all the things you point at in the opening chapters of your book “Presence – Working from Within.” It was really a wink from the universe, in which one could almost hear God giggling. What I will do is forward the book “Presence – Working from Within” to him and say it is from my old and dear friend Giten.
Giten’s first loved and best-selling book in Swedish!

26-YEAR OLD INMATE IN A SWEDISH PRISON BEGAN TO MEDITATE IN THE CELL AFTER READING GITEN’SBEST-SELLING BOOK “SONG OF MEDITATION”
Giten’s Swedish publisher forwarded a letter from a reader of his first book in Swedish, “Song of Meditation – About Meditation, Relationships and Spiritual Creativity”.
The letter was from a 26 year old man in a Swedish prison, who wrote that the prison librarian unexpectedly had recommended him to read “Song of Meditation”. He wrote that reading the book had inspired him to stop taking drugs and began meditating in the cell.
It is always fascinating to hear in what strange and mysterious ways that “Song of Meditation” is singing its song to the hearts of people.”, says Giten.
THE SILENT WHISPERINGS OF THE HEART
– An Introduction to Giten’s Approach to Life
A Beautiful Gift for Yourself or a Beloved Friend
“Giten writes in a poetic language. When I read Giten, I am reminded of Kahlil Gibran.
Yes, I would like to compare Giten to Kahlil Gibran.” Gordon Banta, author of Magic of Meditation, USA
“In keeping our hearts with all diligence, Giten helps us address the issues of our lives,
fluently and eloquently speaking the language of the heart.” Larry Chang, author of Wisdom for the Soul, Washington, USA
“Giten is a really beautiful soul.”
Swami Anand Arun, Tapoban Meditation Center, Nepal
How can we learn to listen to the silent whisperings of our heart? How does love relate to aloneness?
What is intuition? How can we develop our presence, so that our presence and intuition becomes a source of love, joy, healing and wisdom in the contact with another person? What is the difference between the personality and the inner being, the authentic self? How can we develop the inner being through meditation? How do the inner man and woman express themselves on the outside in the form of relationships? How do the three life areas, meditation, relationships and creativity, relate to each other in creating a loving, fulfilling and creative life? What is spiritual maturity?
The Silent Whisperings of the Heart consists of a collection of quotes from Swami Dhyan Giten about awareness, meditation, intuition, relationships, the inner man and woman, healing, working with people from love and awareness, truth, creativity, silence,
wisdom and spiritual maturity. Each page inspires you to see yourself and life in a new way, from a new dimension. This collection of quotes is an introduction to Giten’s perspective on life. It is a a beautiful gift for yourself or a friend.
Giten has been compared with the poetry of Kahlil Gibran, author of the famous book The Prophet, and he has been quoted together with Albert Einstein, Carl Jung, Ramana Maharishi, Plato, Albert Schweizer, Jean-Paul Sartre, Bertrand Russel, Anais Nin, Walt Whitman, William Blake, Herman Hesse, Heraclitus, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and the Indian book of wisdom The Upanishads.
“In The Whisperings of the Heart, Giten points at the variety of ways in which our inner being expresses itself in terms of our actions and our relationships. He also provides insights in various areas, including of course, those of healing and intuition, meditation, art and creativity, communications, loving relationships with friends and family, working with people from love and awareness and spiritual maturity.
His comments are both useful as well as joyful and inspirational. More than anything, they motivate us to taste where we may not have fully tasted before, to taste the beyond.
Giten invites us to a celebration, a feast for the soul and delights us and inspires us with capsules of insight and conscious affirmation of the deliciousness of the divine.”
From the foreword by Eric Rolf, International lecturer, seminary leader,
author of the book Soul Medicine and consultant to John Lennon, Yoko Ono,
Paul Simon and Carlos Santana

and book recommendations with 45 million users
Giten’s “The Language of Silence” is a beautifully expressed and highly intimate picture of his own spiritual history. While reading this book, which is, formatted in short segments and insightful phrases and a true delight to read and sure to later re-visit, I had the sense of listening to his open heart as it gave words to his personal silence. Giten offers us a quite intimate connection with his inner being and thus a glimpse of the beauty within ourselves.”
– Eric Rolf, international lecturer, author of “Soul Medicine” and former consultant to John Lennon
“I was 9 years old when I had my first spiritual awakening, my first glimpse of wholeness with Existence, my first taste of the language of silence, says spiritual teacher and best-selling author Swami Dhyan Giten in this book. This created a deep thirst and longing in his heart and being to return to this natural and effortless experience of being one with the Whole.
I have always had the capacity to go within myself and to discover the silence within,
the inner meditative quality, the inner source of love and truth, the inner language of silence”,
Giten explains in this book. “Now I also notice that this silence is going deeper, and that I go beyond the ego and disappear into the silence.”
This book consists of a collection of quotes from Swami Dhyan Giten on silence. It also explains how silence is the flower and love and wholeness is the fragrance. “As I started studying for Giten, a new dimension of awareness has developed step by step, which has transformed my whole life.
Thank you so much Giten for your wonderful being and support in life.” – From the foreword by Deva Emanuel, musician and student of Giten for 7 years.
“Swami Dhyan Giten’s The Language of Silence — From Darkness to Light reminds me of those moments when we drift back from sleep to wakefulness and the precious insights that quite often occur in those instances of ”awakening.” It is my own experience that all spiritual paths have a common thread which most simply stated is: unconditional self-acceptance. It is this process or journey toward self-acceptance that leads to our connection with our individual aloneness and silence about which Giten so beautifully often comments.
Here Giten tells us we find our true heart, that love that becomes our healer and a healing presence that projects beyond ourselves and heals and nourishes the lives of all others with whom we have contact, be they friends, strangers or even our pets.

– Prem Mukta, Artist & Music management, participant in satsang with Giten, Stockholm
“No one has been able to deliver the message of Jesus so fantastic beautiful that Giten has
managed in the book “The way, the truth and the life.” Finally, we have his message in original.
I am shaken and stunned. The religious words that Giten formulate can make anyone mentally stunned. These words create an inner silence and a deep spiritual wonder for life. Giten has shaken me. I hope the readers also discover his greatness.” -Brage Norin, professor in theoretical physics “When I participated in Satsang with Giten for the first time, I felt that I had come to the right place. I felt that I had come home. I never thought that a 2-hour Satsang could go so deep. The love that I found within myself during Satsang with Giten just continued to flow a week after the Satsang.” – Iiris, special education teacher for autistic children and participant in Satsang with Moji and Eckhart Tolle
This book is a compilation of Swami Dhyan Giten’s lectures on Jesus Christ during satsang between May – July, 2015, in Stockholm.
Giten was a disciple of Jesus in a former life.
In this book, Giten talks about the beauty and wisdom of the words of Jesus. Giten talks about Jesus, the Man, Jesus, the Mystic and Jesus, the Rebel. He makes a clear distinction between Jesus Christ and the religion that has been built around him – Christianity.
Through talking about the gospels of Matthew, Luke and John, Giten reintroduces Jesus as the man, the mystic and the compromiseless rebel, who are filled with love and compassion. Jesus becomes alive in a new and dynamic way and not in the way that Jesus has been presented to us by the theologians and the priests.
Giten talks about love, joy, trust, acceptance, healing, truth, the need to serve, the difference
between being and ego, wisdom, silence and God.
For the first time, we really feel the laughter, passion, silence and celebration of life in Jesus,
which shows us the deeper meaning, the timeless relevance. This book is a joy and a delight for those
in love with the words of Jesus.
In-between the lectures on Jesus Christ, Giten answers questions on spiritual growth
from seekers of truth. Giten has also complemented the lectures on Jesus with The Art of Living,
which includes practical meditation exercises.

Buddha’s greatest message, his gift to humanity, is the message of no-self, anatta, silence and emptiness, spiritual teacher Swami Dhyan Giten says in this book. Giten continues: “First Buddha says don’t make a home in the world. Then he says don’t be attached and then he says look into yourself: you are not. First he says that the world is illusory: don’t make a home here. Buddha emphasizes very much the idea of homelessness, because the world is illusory. It need not be taken literally, but to build a home around you is like trying to stop the river of life, which is continuously changing. Then he says that attachments of possessing people are just dreams, illusions. Drop all attachments from your mind. And then he comes to the deepest doctrine. The doctrine is: look inside, you are not. You can only exist as an ego with the home, with the possessions, with the relationships.”
When I read this book, I feel like being in a modern mystery school. Thank you. It is the same feeling of joy, beauty and excitement, which reminds me of when the colibri unexpectedly picked me in the ear, or when the llama suddenly spit me in the face.

An excerpt from the book
FINDING OUR
OWN WAY
From Dhammapada, Chapter 1
WE ARE WHAT WE THINK
ALL THAT WE ARE ARISES WITH OUR THOUGHTS
WITH OUR THOUGHTS WE MAKE THE WORLD
SPEAK OR ACT WITH AN IMPURE MIND
AND TROUBLE WILL FOLLOW YOU
AS THE WHEEL FOLLOWS THE OX
THAT DRAWS THE CART
WHOEVER IS MASTER OF HIS OWN NATURE
BRIGHT, CLEAR AND TRUE.
HE MAY INDEED WEAR THE YELLOW ROBE
The Dhammapada, the teaching of Buddha, can only be taught to the bodhisattva’s.
It cannot be taught to the ordinary humanity, because it cannot be understood by them.
A Bodhisattva means a buddha in essence, a buddha asleep, but with the potential to be awake.
In that sense everybody is a bodhisattva, but not everybody can be called a bodhisattva.
Only those who have started to search for the truth and the light can be called a bodhisattva.
We have made investments in lies for so many lives that the idea of truth makes us scared.
But truth already is. Truth has not to be invented, truth has to be discovered.
You have taken the commitment to search for truth, which is why I call you bodhisattva’s.
These words of Buddha come from eternal silence.
They can reach you only if you receive them in silence.
Unless you become aware, egoless, you will not be able to understand them.
These are very simple words, but to understand simplicity, you need simplicity of heart.
Only the simple heart can understand the simple truth.
Satsang is an effort to create an energy field, a buddhafield, an energy field for the eternal truths.
It is a communion of heart, a communion in silence.
These sayings of Buddha are called The Dhammapada.
The word “dhamma” means the ultimate law. It is what keeps the universe together.
A second meaning of “dhamma” is God, but Buddha never uses the word God, because the ultimate law is not a person, but a presence, a consciousness, an energy.
The third meaning of “dhamma” is also discipline, because one who wants to know the truth needs discipline.
The word “disciple” comes from the word discipline. A disciple is someone who is available to learn, to drop the past and to go beyond the mind.
The word “dhamma” also means the ultimate truth. When the mind disappears, when the ego disappears, something remains.
This Buddha calls “nothing”.
The last meaning of “dhamma” is truth. Truth is to become aware of your inner being, the inner emptiness.
The second word is pada. The meaning of pada is path.
You have to become a process, a growth.
You have to become a river, because only rivers will reach the ocean, the whole.
Without dhamma, without relating to the ultimate truth, your life has no meaning.
WE ARE WHAT WE THINK
Who are you if all your thoughts disappear?
An emptiness, a nothingness.
Mystics have always used the word “self” for the innermost core of your being, but Buddha uses the word “no-self”.
He says that when the mind ceases, there is no self left.
You have become universal.
If you really want to know who you are, you will have to learn to cease as a mind and move into no-mind, to disappear into the silence.
And in the silence, you will know the ultimate truth, the dhamma.
Moving from mind to no-mind is the way of the Dahmmapada.
“Giten’s books goes straight to the heart. Giten’s books is for everybody that wants to find a new dimension of awareness in their lives, which will make you endlessly enriched and blessed. Delight in the call of the ocean. Capture the silence and allow yourself the fragrance of truth, joy and light.”

The World is Coming to an End: Remain Awake
The humanity is waiting to become Conscious, to become Buddhas
THE SILENT REVOLUTION OF THE HEART: THE CHALLENGE FOR THE 21st CENTURY
-From Fear to Love, from Darkness to Light and from Separation to Wholeness
The challenge for the 21st century is The Silent Revolution of the Heart. It is not a revolution within an organization or a land in the traditional sense with violence, madness and bloodshed. It is a revolution in human consciousness. The power chakra is the center of the ego, the separated sense of “I”. The power chakra is about control, power and dominance over other people. A person who is on the development level of the power chakra wants to change other people, but he does not want to change himself.
Ordinary relationships are often power relationships, which is a fight and struggle between the partner’s needs and mine. Often the partner in a power relationship has the same strength to develop the power chakra.The society is created out of the ego, and the need of the ego to create a hierarchy with power, status, respect, position, norms, roles and conformity.
Many people in the West live in the power chakra, and are occupied with competing with others, to prove that they are somebody important, and finding their place in the hierarchy. During the 20th Century has the psychological development level of humanity been on the awareness level of the power chakra. The focus of humanity has been on power, dominance, position, money and control over energy resources.
We are technologically developed and this technology governs the development of the society, but this technology is at the same time destroying the earth. Energy resources are also a distinguishing theme in the power balance between countries.
Acting aggressively has its roots in fear, judgments and insecurity. Violence and aggressiveness is about control and dominance over another person. To judge and to be loving is two sides of the same coin. Judgments about another person are really about yourself.
When we stop judging others and ourselves, our hearts opens. The heart is a healer that transforms fear to love, judgments to acceptance and separation to wholeness. The heart heals.
The 21st century means an inner awakening. It means a time to grow up. Many people talk about spirituality, meditation and inner development but it does not seem to change their lives. Our spiritual development depends on our commitment to our own development. We can use our free will to take on the challenge of life to grow or we can choose not to grow. This is the freedom that life gives us and it our own responsibility, but it seems that it is few people that accept life’s challenge to grow.
The 21st century represents a choice between the separation of ego and the vision of the heart. The silent revolution of the heart is a shift in human consciousness from the shortsighted perspective of the ego of “me” and “mine” to the focus of the heart on love and the needs of the other. It is a shift in consciousness from the shortsighted separation of the ego to the vision of the heart.
When we follow the way of the ego, the path of endless desires, it leads to struggle, conflict, exhaustion and separation from the Whole. The way of the heart is about learning to listen to our heart, to our inner source of love, joy, truth and wisdom. It is to be in a deep harmony with Existence.
When our heart is closed it creates an isolated and lonely feeling together with the attitude: “Nobody loves me”, “nobody cares about me” and “life is a struggle”, which makes us not see the love that is all around us.A silent revolution of the heart happens when we start to care about another person, and it is a joy to put the needs of the other person before our own needs. It is on the awareness level of the heart that we begin to develop the sensitivity and awareness that makes us care about another person.
The heart operates from the premises: I am responsible and only love works.Love is to eat pizza with our beloved partner even though we hate pizza.Our heart is the door to unconditional love for both others and ourselves. Our heart is really always open, but our judgments about others and ourselves keep it closed.
When we stop judging others, and ourselves our heart begins to open. The way to healing is to learn to love and accept ourselves unconditionally. It means to embrace both our positive and negative sides with love and understanding. It means to learn to love everything that we find within ourselves.
We have been taught to love others, but not to love ourselves. But how can we love others without loving ourselves? The ABC of love is that we first need to learn to love ourselves before we can love anybody else.Trust is a prerequisite for love. Without trust, love is without depth. It is like a plastic flower, instead of an alive, fresh and fragrant rose. Even if some people will let us down and make us sad and disappointed, it is no reason to let it undermine our basic trust in life. It is better to allow some people to let us down than not allow our basic trust in life to develop.
Many people are so sleeping and unconscious that they really do not know what they are doing. They make us disappointed even if they do not really mean to. Even if we feel hurt, disillusioned and disappointed with people, see if you can give them love and understanding. A criterion for spiritual growth is that we begin to give love, rather than needing love.Exactly as the rhythm of in-breathes and out-breathes of the physical body, the heart has also two poles: to give love and to receive love. Certain people are easier to give love to and other people are easier to be open to receive love. But to allow our love to become whole, we need to learn both to give love and to receive love.
Animals are great teachers in friendship and unconditional love. One of my course participants commented in a course, “I prefer animals before people, because animals cannot hurt me in the same way that people can. I myself still find it difficult to really trust that I am loved as I am. Even if I am aware about this, there is still a small part of myself that wants to contract, and which does not really trust that I am loved as I am and that life takes care of me. I find it easier to be present for others than to allow others to be present for me.”
Love and fear are two sides of the same coin. In the absence of love fear arises. In the light of love fear disappears, like when you turn the light on in a dark room. Fear is a contraction of our life energy together with an attitude of loneliness and isolation. Love creates an expansion of our life energy together with a feeling of love, joy and belongingness.Love is the strongest power there is. There is no stronger force than love. Love is pure magic. Love transforms people without really doing anything. The sheer presence of love transforms people. There is nothing more holy than love, since love makes people whole.Love accepts a person as he is.
Love creates the freedom, which allows a person to be himself. Love creates the relaxation, which allows a person to relax into his inner being, into his authentic self. Love allows us to appreciate the beautiful being that we already are. Love allows a person to discover his true individuality.
Love is not an exclusive relationship with another person; love is a quality of our inner being. It is to discover the source of love deep within ourselves, which is our true nature.In the depth of our heart, we already know that we are perfect as we are. In the depth of our inner being, we already know that life is perfect as it is.
It is on the awareness level of the heart that we begin to understand that we are not separate from life. We begin to understand that we are not small separate islands in a large ocean, but that life is one and that we are all small parts of the same whole.It is on the awareness level of the heart that we begin to understand what is important and meaningful in life. We begin to understand that life is about sharing, rather than hoarding, that life is about giving, rather than taking. It is when we open our heart that we discover a sense of unity in love with other people, with the trees, with nature, with the sea and with the blue sky. This is the silent revolution of the heart.The human heart is the solution to the problems of the world.The human heart contains all the answers.The human heart has the capacity to expand and embrace the whole earth.
THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END: REMAIN AWAKE
The world is running fast toward the end. The ecology of the planet is breaking down. This should be absolutely emphasized on your consciousness, so that you stop postponing your own transformation.
Man is asleep, he is almost in a coma, and his actions are arising out of this state of coma. Man’s mind is so stupid that if there is a little possibility to postpone, then he will postpone for tomorrow. You may go on sleeping and the world may come to an end. You don’t have time to waste for anything else other than your own awakening, but your growth is so slow that there is every possibility that the world will be gone before you become enlightened.You are not putting your total energy into awareness, into meditation. It is just one of those things that you are doing and it is not even the first priority of your life.It has to be the first priority. That the world is coming to an end has to be emphasized on your consciousness, so that you stop postponing your own awakening.
Nothing has changed in the world; everything is going exactly in the direction of war and death. It all depends on what your priority is. If being awakened has become your priority, and you are ready to sacrifice everything for it, then there is hope.To wake up, you have to realize that the end of the world is coming closer. That the end of the world is coming closer means to things: it must be clear that the world is working for its final suicide and that there is still a possibility at least for you to become awakened.Your awakening is of tremendous importance. To make you aware of the reality, so that you can make some effort to remain awake, to make some effort to be more conscious and not to get lost in trivia – is absolutely necessary.
THE HUMANITY IS WAITING TO BECOME CONSCIOUS, TO BECOME BUDDHAS
Humanity is waiting to become conscious, to become buddhas. Humanity may not be aware of it, but they are waiting for help to become buddhas.
You have to live to help humanity to wake up, even if they fight you. They have to be made buddhas.The more you share the more you have. Jesus said that if you don’t share, you won’t even have that which you had. He said: “Those who have shall be given more, and those who have not, even whatsoever they have will be taken away.” The more you give, the more you will have. The less you give, the less you will have.
Sharing is the way of the buddha. Sharing is the only compassion. Sharing is the only service. Sharing is authentic religiousness.Then suddenly the whole existence has become your home. You are no longer a stranger. You belong to existence. This existence belongs to you.
This is the only possibility to save humanity and to help humanity celebrate life in a deep synchronicity with existence.

YOU ARE ALREADY A BUDDHA: A New Way of Being, A New Way of Living
By Swami Dhyan Giten
“EXCELLENT. Giten is really a spiritual master of love and silence. He is a loving man, who knows the science of truth, love and life. Whenever I read his words of spirituality, I always find myself in deep silence and in the belly of the divine, where anyone can feel himself as a buddha.”

THIS BOOK IS LIKE LISTENING TO BIRDSONG. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS BOOK. GITEN’S NEW BOOK IS HIS MOST ACCOMPLISHED BOOK“
This book is so beautiful; it is like listening to birdsong. I am in love with this book. It is very clear and direct. Giten’s new book is his most accomplished book.
It is the capacity and the clear intensity of walking like an arrow directly towards the center of the inner being in meditation that really surrounds this book. I’m speechless.
I have never heard anyone ever been able to describe this as educational and “up to date” as it must be and just is – like the simplicity of drinking a glass of water.”

– Rani Spets Edgren, Breath Therapist, Stockholm
Everybody has the birthright to become a buddha. The buddha is inherent in every human being, and not only in every human being, but it is the intrinsic quality of every living being.
What is preventing you from becoming a Buddha? The reason is simple, because to become a buddha is also a desire. It is not a question of becoming a buddha. It is a question of entering your being.The buddha is already in your being.
There is a great difference between being and becoming. Becoming is in the future. Being is just here and now. You are already a buddha. It means that we are a buddha, but we are unnecessarily running after being a buddha.
When you go inside, where a silence descends on you, you return to the source. At the source, you are the buddha. At the source, you are one with life and existence.The buddha is your own being.
Make a deep commitment to yourself that you are going to become a buddha in this life. Without being a buddha, you don’t have any meaning in your life.When you don’t make a commitment to become a buddha in this life it may take lives and lives, because you do not want to become enlightened. Otherwise, this very moment you are the buddha, because you are already a buddha. Just a straight insight into your inner being, and enlightenment can happen suddenly.
Within you wait a light that has been within you since eternity, a light that is your immortality. Just enter into yourself and you have entered the temple of existence.
This book is a compilation of spiritual teacher and author Swami Dhyan Giten’s lectures on enlightenment during satsang between 2020 – 2021 in Stockholm.
This book is an opportunity to find the inner buddha, to find the silence, joy, truth, freedom, compassion, to find the roots in eternity, immortality and deathlessness, and to be one with life and existence. It is to become one with the trees, with the animals, with the rivers and the oceans. Use this book as an opportunity to become a light to yourself.
Cover painting: SHAKTIPAT, Swami Dhyan Giten Shaktipat is a Sanskrit term that means transmssion of the light, transmission of grace.
Giten’s new book “You are Already a Buddha: A New Way of Being, A New Way of Living” is now published globally on Amazon as a gift of wisdom, a gift from existence.
TURNING IN- An opportunity to become a light to yourself
Silence, love, joy, truth, freedom, compassion,finding the roots in eternity, immortality and deathlessness and to be one with existence
February, March and April 2022, Ten Thursday evenings in Stockholm Start Thursday 3 February. Course language in Sweden: Swedish
In this satsang series, Giten calls us to move towards the inner harmony, as a first step towards meditation. But inner harmony can not be achieved unless we are oriented towards inside, leaving behind our worldly matters.What does turning in means? Turning in is to see the futility of desires. When you turn within, a silence descends on you, you return to thesource. At the source, you are the buddha. At the source, you are one with life and existence. When the energy is not moving at all, when there is no movement, when everything is still, when all has stopped – because seeing the futility of desire you cannot move anywhere, there is nowhere to go – stillness descends. The world stops. That’s what is meant by ‘turning in’. Suddenly you are in.
You have always been there, now you are awake. The night is over, the morning has come, you are awake.This is what is meant by Buddhahood – to become aware, awake, of that which is already the case. From the very beginning all beings are Buddhas. From the very beginning to the very end. In the beginning, in the middle, in the end, all are Buddhas. Not for a single moment have you been anybody else.The buddha is your own being. Without being a buddha, you don’t have any meaning in your life.
Otherwise, this very moment you are the buddha, because you are already a buddha. Just a straight insight into your inner being, and enlightenment can happen suddenly. Within you wait a light that has been within you since eternity, a light that is your immortality. Just enter into yourself and you have entered the temple of existence.
This satsang series is an opportunity to turn within and to find the inner buddha,to find the silence, joy, truth, freedom, compassion, to find the roots in eternity, immortality and deathlessness, and to be one with life and existence. It is to become one with the trees, with the animals, with the rivers and the oceans.
This satsang series is an opportunity to become a light to yourself. In this satsang series, Giten gives detailed explanations of the Zen method of meditation, “turning in.”He outlines the development of man’s mind, and emphasizes that meditation is essential not only for the growth of the individual, but ultimately for the survival of the planet.This satsang series with Giten explores the path and internal light to orient oneself to its inside effortlessly.This satsang series is supported by satsang withGiten, which is a turning into our inner being, to our inner source of love and truth, to the eternal within, to the inner source where we are one with life and existence.
Satsang with Giten is a meeting of love, truth and silence. Satsang with Giten is a direct insight and realization of being.This satsang series also works as a prolonged shaktipat (transmission of spiritual energy), which both creates immediate results – together with effects that become obvious during the coming weeks and months after the intensive.
Giten experienced his first satori, his first glimpse of spiritual awakening, when he was 9 years old. This created a deep thirst and longing in his heart and beingto return to this natural and effortless experience of being one with the Whole.
In1982, Giten was directed by the Divine presence in a trance session with the American trance chancellor Lin David Martin: “You have listened to your intuition, to your true inner voice, more than most. You have been searching for the contact with the Spirit for a long time and now it is beginning to manifest on the outer plane. You have been gifted many times in previous embodiments and now everything will come rather easy for you. I want you to put your energy into the lives of others, because you can.”
A spiritual teacher, who has counseled thousands of people, told Giten in 1984:“You will dissolve into the silence. All the earlier enlightened Masters and all the small Deva’s are just here to help you to get enlightened.”
When Giten pursued an advanced training in spiritual healing in USA 1984, he was told that he had the capacity to become a seventh chakra healer, a spiritual healer, to act as a catalyst and channel for spiritual energy from the seventh chakra through the heart. The last 30 years has meant to develop and deepen this capacity to an instrument of subtle catalytic effect, which Giten uses in this Satsang series.

“With Giten’s book on Jesus, it is like Jesus is coming back. It is the true Jesus.”
– Prem Mukta, Artist & Music management, participant in satsang with Giten, Stockholm
“No one has been able to deliver the message of Jesus so fantastic beautiful that Giten has managed in the book “The way, the truth and the life.” Finally we have got his message in original. I am shaken and stunned. The religious words that Giten formulate can make anyone mentally stunned. These words create an inner silence and a deep spiritual wonder for life. Giten has shaken me. I hope the readers also discover his greatness.”
-Brage Norin, professor in theoretical physics
“When I participated in Satsang with Giten for the first time, I felt that I had come to the right place. I felt that I had come home. I never thought that a 2-hour Satsang could go so deep. The love that I found within myself during Satsang with Giten just continued to flow a week after the Satsang.”
– Iiris, special education teacher for autistic children and participant in Satsang with Moji and Eckhart Tolle
”Through understanding meditation, I can understand Jesus. I can understand the innocence, beauty, silence and truth of Jesus. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, but the way has to be walked. The Bible and Jesus disciples have totally misunderstood what Jesus really was doing during 40 days in silence in the desert. He was meditating in the desert, which is the way to discover the inner being, the kingdom of God, which is the whole message of Jesus.”
This book is a compilation of Swami Dhyan Giten’s lectures on Jesus Christ during satsang between May – July, 2015, in Stockholm.
Giten was a disciple of Jesus in a former life.
In this book Giten talks about the beauty and wisdom of the words of Jesus.
Giten talks about Jesus, the Man, Jesus, the Mystic and Jesus, the Rebel. He makes a clear distinction between Jesus Christ and the religion that has been built around him – Christianity.
Through talking about the gospels of Matthew, Luke and John, Giten reintroduces Jesus as the man, the mystic and the compromiseless rebel, who are filled with love and compassion. Jesus becomes alive in a new and dynamic way and not in the way that Jesus has been presented to us by the theologians and the priests.
Giten talks about love, joy, trust, acceptance, healing, truth, the need to serve, the difference between being and ego, wisdom, silence and God.
For the first time, we really feel the laughter, passion, silence and celebration of life in Jesus, which shows us the deeper meaning, the timeless relevance.
This book is a joy and a delight for those in love with the words of Jesus.
In-between the lectures on Jesus Christ, Giten answer questions on spiritual growth from seekers of truth.
The book is now available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
The book is available in USA, ENGLAND, SWEDEN, DENMARK, GERMANY, ITALY, SPAIN, FRANCE, JAPAN, MEXICO, SOUTH AMERICA, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, RUSSIA TO INDIA

SWAMI DHYAN GITEN, spiritual teacher and best-selling author, has more than 30 years of experience in individual counseling and in teaching awareness and meditation.
He has been speaking and teaching about the inner silence and how to reach it through love, joy, meditation, awareness, relationships and creativity.
Swami Dhyan Giten has dedicated his life to teaching the art of awareness and meditation. He conducts individual consultations, satsang and courses internationally.
His quotes, articles and books have touched the hearts of thousands and are appearing with increasing frequency in magazines, blogs and websites.
He is trained in modern psychology at the University of Stockholm, where the head teacher at the psychological institution called Giten “the salt of the earth”, and a classmate said that Giten “did not move an inch from who he is”. He is also trained in classic Eastern methods for awareness and meditation in the USA, Italy, Sweden and India.
Giten experienced his first satori, his first glimpse of spiritual awakening, when he was 9 years old. This created a deep thirst and longing in his heart and being to return to this natural and effortless experience of being one with the Whole.
In 1982, Giten was directed by the Divine presence in a trance session with the American trance chancellor Lin David Martin: “You have listened to your intuition, to your true inner voice, more than most. You have been searching for the contact with the Spirit for a long time and now it is beginning to manifest on the outer plane. You have been gifted many times in previous embodiments and now everything will come rather easy for you. I want you to put your energy into the lives of others, because you can.”
A spiritual teacher, who has counseled thousands of people, told Giten in 1984: “You will dissolve into the silence. All the earlier enlightened Masters and all the small Deva’s are just here to help you to get enlightened.”
He does not belong to any spiritual group or tradition; he is only interested to explore what it means to live with open eyes.
In satsang, Giten has talked about a variety of topics of concern for the modern man during satsang for example love, joy, relationships, acceptance, understanding, intuition, healing, trust, creativity, friendship, spiritual growth, evolution, society, life, meditation, silence, spirituality, mysticism, psychology, truth, wisdom, death, unity with life, God and enlightenment. He has also talked about a number of spiritual teachers and traditions such as Vedanta, Yoga, Tantra, Veda, Upanishads, Ayurveda, the chakra system, Tao, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Patanjali and Jesus Christ.
He is author of the best-selling book in Swedish Meditationens Sång – Om meditation, relationer och andlig kreativitet (available on Akademibokhandeln.se, Bokus.com, Adlibris.com and Amazon), When the Drop becomes the Ocean: A Journey to the Ocean, to the Divine (available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble), The Silent Whisperings of the Heart – An Introduction to Giten’s Approach toLife (available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble), Presence – Working from Within. The Psychology of Being (available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble) The Language of Silence – From Darkness to Light (available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble) and The Way, the Truth and the Life: On Jesus Christ, The Man, the Mystic and the Rebel (available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble and available on Akademibokhandeln.se, Bokus.com and Adlibris.com in Sweden, Norway and Finland). His new book You Are Already a Buddha: A New Way of Being, A New Way of Being is available globally on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

WHEN THE DROP BECOMES THE OCEAN: A
JOURNEY TO THE OCEAN, TO THE DIVINE
“When a person experiences the divine, he can no longer condemn anyone. Love becomes natural to him, because he starts seeing godliness in everybody.
The person that has entered the inner temple of the heart of all living beings truly sees.
To experience godliness one has to recognize that which is hidden deep in the inner temple of the heart. The divine is hidden deep within yourself.”

– Boundless Blessings Blog about Giten’s new book “When the
Drop becomes the Ocean”
Giten’s new beautiful coffee table book “When the Drop becomes the ocean” is in A4-size with color photos and is a beautiful gift to yourself or a friend.
The book can be displayed both on your coffee table and in your spiritual center, so that people can open a page in the book and receive a light on the path, to receive a guiding quote for the day.
The book is dedicated to Padma, Giten’s beloved friend from many lives, who also participated in satsang with him.
This book is a compilation of lectures from satsang with spiritual teacher and best-selling author Swami Dhyan Giten on the Upanishads, the ancient wisdom of India, between March 2016 and July 2018 in Stockholm.
In this book Giten talks about The Upanishadic vision of life, which is a universe in an organic whole. We are all existing in togetherness. The trees, the flowers, the stones, the birds, the mountains and the stars are all interlinked. The part represents the whole. Nothing is lower, nothing is higher – all is one. The smallest blade of grass is connected with the farthest stars.
The Upanishadic vision of life has never become part of human consciousness. It has remained the vision of a few mystics, which is the basic reason for the misery of the world.”
“Man is like a river on his way towards the ocean, towards the divine. The drop has a thirst, a longing. The drop knows nothing of the ocean, but the drop longs to become one with the ocean. The drop cannot find fulfillment until it becomes one with the ocean, the divine. This book is a journey to the ocean, to the divine.”

“I was 9 years old when I had my first spiritual awakening, my
first glimpse of wholeness with Existence, my first taste of the
language of silence, says spiritual teacher and best-selling
author Swami Dhyan Giten in this book. This created a deep
thirst and longing in his heart and being to return to this
natural and effortless experience of being one with the Whole.
I have always had the capacity to go within myself and to
discover the silence within, the inner meditative quality, the
inner source of love and truth, the inner language of silence”,
Giten explains in this book. “Now I also notice that this silence
is going deeper, and that I go beyond the ego and disappear
into the silence.”
This book consists of a collection of quotes from Swami Dhyan
Giten on silence. It also explains how silence is the flower and
love and wholeness are the fragrance.
Swami Dhyan Giten has dedicated his life to teach the art of
awareness and meditation. He conducts individual
consultations, seminars and courses internationally. His quotes,
articles and books has touched the hearts of thousands and
are appearing with increasing frequency in magazines, blogs
and websites
“As I started studying for Giten, a new dimension of
awareness has developed step by step, which has
transformed my whole life. Thank you so much Giten for your
wonderful being and support in life.”
– From the foreword by Deva Emanuel, musician and student of Giten since 7 years.
“Swami Dhyan Giten’s The Language of Silence — From Darkness to Light reminds me of those moments when we drift back from sleep to wakefulness and the precious insights that quite often occur in those instants of ”awakening.”
It is my own experience that all spiritual paths have a common thread which most simply stated is: unconditional self-acceptance. It is this process or journey toward self-acceptance that leads to our connection with our individual aloneness and silence about which Giten so beautifully often comments. Here Giten tells us we find our true heart, that love that becomes our healer and a healing presence that projects beyond ourselves and heals and nourishes the lives of all others with who we have contact, be they friends, strangers or even our pets.
Giten’s “The Language of Silence” is a beautifully expressed and highly intimate picture of his own spiritual history. While reading this book, which is, formatted in short segments and insightful phrases and a true delight to read and sure to later re-visit, I had the sense of listening to his open heart as it gave words to his personal silence. Giten offers us a quite intimate connection with his inner being and thus a glimpse of the beauty within ourselves.”

SATSANG WITH GITEN, 5 AUGUST, 2021, IN STOCKHOLM:
GITEN’S RECEIVES BEAUTIFUL YELLOW SUN FLOWERS ON THE FIRST NIGHT OF THE NEW SATSANG SERIES “FROM MISERY TO ENLIGHTENMENT: GITEN’S VISION FOR HUMANITY” AND FOR HAVING STARTED TO WRITE HIS NEW BOOK “YOU ARE ALREADY A BUDDHA”
Giten receives beautiful sunflowers to congratulate him on the first night of the new satsang series “From Misery to Enlightenment: Giten’s Vision for Humanity” and congratulations on having started writing his new book “You Are Already A Buddha”
The moment truth is organized it becomes a lie.
Jesus and Buddha never created any organized religion. An organized religion becomes politics. It becomes a manipulation, control and exploitation by the priests.
You don’t have to be Christians or Buddhists, because your own potential is to be a buddha. Buddha taught you to become a buddha. The people who were with Buddha were not part of any organized religion. They were free and independent individuals.
Buddha did not want to be anybody’s guru, he simply wanted to be a friend, a fellow traveler on the spiritual path. He wanted to create as many individuals in the world with absolute freedom in their soul with no chains to Christianity or Buddhism and with no scriptures, no teachings, except for awareness.
He taught spirituality, not religion. Spirituality is not a membership of any church or cult, but a quality that transforms your being and makes your inner potential blossom.
Buddha was available to help his people to become buddhas. He wanted a world of buddhas, who were free from organized religions and cults, and who would find their own wings to fly in the sky.
Truth brings freedom, freedom from religions, cults and scriptures. Truth brings a silence, a peace and a sense of eternity, and immortality and deathlessness. But it has nothing to do with organized religion and cults.
Spiritual Masters teach on many different levels at the same time. Some people take what they can, and some take something deeper. Spiritual organizations also tend to get stuck in ideas of how it should be.
DANISH CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALIST SAYS THAT GITEN’S PHILOSOPHY IS IN DIRECT OPPOSITION TO THE WORDS OF GOD
Apostolic Church Center in Vejle in Denmark has written about Giten and linked to his words on their website, which has created heated feelings among Christians in Denmark.
On the Danish website Moriel.dk, the fundamentalist Christian Ole Michaelsen is horrified that Apostolic Church Center has written about “the mystic Swami Dhyan Giten” on their website.
He begins his article by quoting Paulus, who had never met Jesus and whose basic mission was to kill the early Christians. He continues to say that Giten stands for Hinduism, because Giten says that God is not a person, but that God is the underlying energy and consciousness of the whole existence.
His conclusion is that Giten’s philosophy is in direct opposition to the words of God.
Swami Dhyan Giten: Jesus Christ – The Path of Love
An excerpt from Giten’s book “Jesus Christ: The Way, The Truth and The Life”, which is a compilation of lectures during satsang with Giten on Jesus Christ. Giten was a disciple to Jesus in a former life.
The Path of Love, the path of Bhakti Yoga, is the path of Jesus Christ. Love is not a technique. Love knows no technique, so the path of love has no method or technique. If you bring technique to the path of love, you will destroy love.
The whole existence is love, and the birds need no technique to love, trees need no technique to love the mountains need no technique to love. Love only needs that you drop the ego, and drop into your heart. It is just like a rose flower opening. You need not open it, it has the capacity to open already. The capacity is intrinsic, and of its own accord the rose flower will open – and in the same way the heart opens. The heart needs no technique, the heart needs no training.
Jesus says: “God is love”. If you can love, it will happen by itself. Jesus’ path is the way of love, of prayer. It is a deep love for the whole existence.
Jesus was a man of love, of immense compassion. He loved this earth, the people, the threes, because that is the way to love God. God is life. Jesus is very life-affirmative. He says total yes to life.
When you look into the eyes of each being that you meet, you meet God. Everybody is an incarnation of God – the threes, the flowers, the rocks, the animals, the people and the mountains. Love the people, love the threes, love the animals – and through the love you meet God. All are brothers here, because God is one. The trees, the flowers, the birds and the rocks are all your brothers, because they all come from the one source. if you are not reconciled with the world, you cannot pray to God.
Prayer is only possible when you are in harmony with existence. The whole existence is your brother. The first step for prayer is to be reconciled with your brother. And your brother means all beings. Jesus is a celebration of being, a celebration of life. If you deny life, you deny God. If you say no to life, you say no to God, because God is life.
To understand Jesus, you have to understand that life is God. If you say yes to life, you will feel a prayer arising in your heart, a yes arising in your being.
The ego is a no to life, the ego is a separation from life. The inner being is a yes to life. The inner being is a deep yes and acceptance of life. Saying yes bridges you with the whole. It makes you a part of the whole. Saying yes will make you more and more spiritual.
Jesus’ whole message is yes. The word “amen” means yes. You will never meet God, you will meet human beings, animals, stones and threes.
You can love God through other human beings, through threes, through stones and through animals. And when you have learnt to love God through all his forms – then only love changes into prayer.
SPIRITUAL TEACHER AND AUTHOR SWAMI DHYAN GITEN SUBJECTED TO GROSS ATTACKS BY THE SANNYAS COMMUNITY IN STOCKHOLM
Ganga Anna Hoffman, who has spread malicious gossip about people at the Osho center in Stockholm for 30 years, who has instigated the attack against Giten has been reported to the Swedish police for gross slander.
The police wondered what the basis of Hoffman’s allegations was, because she had not met Giten for 30 years and had not participated in any satsang with Giten.
Ganga Anna Hoffman’s behavior for more than 30 years in the Osho Center in Stockholm has been sheltered by the center leader Muktesh, the power group of the center and the general dysfunctional climate of the center.
When Hoffman was criticized for systematic abuse and malicious gossip against people, she replied: “It is better to be a sadist than to be a masculine”, which is a statement that describes her well.
Since Giten reported Hoffman to the Swedish police, the sannyas organization in Stockholm has reacted with total denial and silence. The Osho center in Stockholm is now closed. If you are esoterically inclined, you could say that Osho finally closed it.
The former center leader at the Osho Center in Stockholm, who was appointed directly by Osho himself to lead the center, considered such gossip to be “morbid” and chased people who engaged in it. But this center leader was subjected to malicious gossip and left the center.
This gross attack against Giten created many comments and reactions from all over the world: Padma, participant in satsang with Giten said: “I am ashamed by the attack on Giten from the Swedish sannyas movement. I am ashamed that people that have been sannyasins for so long are so unconscious.
Prem Pathik in India commented: “This must be a few people, who are not really not living their lives as they like. You are real. Authentic on your way and self. A loving man, who knows the science of truth, love and life. You will have to stand with your own being. You can. My love wishes to you Always. I know you are right on your way. These women who are just now searching a deeper space can never know you. You know yourself. It’s enough. Love to you.”
The Swedish professor in theoretical physics, Brage Norin, commented: “Continue to do your work regardless of the hatred directed at you. The more hatred you arouse – the more dangerous you are seen by evil. That is a good grade.”
– Brage Norin, professor of theoretical physics, internationally acclaimed international climate researcher, representative of the Swedish Energy Commission in China, consultant for the Swedish think tank Skogsa
Finally one of the oldest sannyasins in Sweden said:” A piece of advice in all good faith. Continue forward without looking back, let others do what they are supposed to do, it is their choice – you do not need their limitation.”
The Swedish spiritual teacher and author Swami Dhyan Giten was recently attacked by the Swedish sannyas movement. This relates closely to the events of Jesus, which requires a deep insight into the human ego.
NOT THE MASTER IN YOUR OWN HOME TOWN
An excerpt from From Giten’s book “The Way, the Truth and the Life: On Jesus Christ, the Man, the Mystic and the Rebel”
(Read more about the book below)
Matthew 13
AND WHEN HE WAS COME INTO HIS OWN COUNTRY, HE TAUGHT THEM IN THEIR SYNAGOGUE, INSOMUCH THAT THEY WERE ASTONISHED AND SAID, WHENCE HATH THIS MAN THIS WISDOM AND THESE MIGHTY WORKS?
IS NOT THIS THE CARPENTER’S SON? IS NOT HIS MOTHER CALLED MARY? AND HIS BRETHREN, AND HIS SISTERS, ARE THEY NOT ALL WITH US? WHENCE THEN HATH THIS MAN ALL THESE THINGS? AND THEY WERE OFFENDED IN HIM.
People were not as offended with Buddha or Lao Tzu as people were offended with Jesus.
With Buddha, he is so far away that you either do not understand him, or people could understand that he was the essence of the Upanishads.
With Jesus, people were offended, because he was just like them. They could not understand him. The said: “We know him! Isn’t he the carpenter’s son?”
Buddha was also the son of a king, while Jesus was a carpenter’s son.
People could not understand. From where comes his wisdom?
They were offended, their ego was offended.
BUT JESUS SAID TO THEM, A PROPHET IS NOT WITHOUT HONOUR,
SAVE IN HIS OWN COUNTRY, AND IN HIS OWN HOUSE.
It has happened so many times that the people who are closest will always misunderstand.
We could expect the contrary, that the people of Jesus village would understand him first. The people of Jesus’ house, his family, his relatives, would understand him first.
But that does not happen.
A deep insight into the human ego is needed to understand it.
With those that are closest to you, it is very difficult to believe that they had gone beyond and above you.
If somebody else, who is not close to you, goes beyond you, the competitive ego does not arise.
But if your brother goes, and you are left behind, your ego is hurt.
You feel defeated, a failure. Then the easiest way is to deny that he has gone beyond.
Jesus offended his own village, family and relatives.
They knew Jesus’ birth date; they knew his father, his mother, his brothers and sisters.
So Jesus cannot be forgiven.
Jesus is a quality of love, but to be able to see this quality, you have to drop your ego.
The presence, the quality of Jesus offends, because you will feel that you have failed.
His very being, his presence, offends you.
With Jesus there are two qualities: you follow him or you deny him, you become an enemy.
When Jesus was crucified, many felt a great relief.
Very rare people could follow Jesus, because they were ready to drop their egos.
And even those that followed Jesus hesitated and had doubts, before they could say yes, before they can trust.
Jesus is a total yes to life, a total trust in life.
